Join us for an overview of the Illinois Shines Program, the state's incentive program supporting new solar energy development across Illinois. K.C.'s session will cover how the program works, the different project categories (Distributed Generation, Community Solar, and more), how to become an Approved Vendor or Designee, and a deep dive into the Equity Eligible Contractor (EEC) pathway — including eligibility, benefits, and how to register. She'll also walk through the Minimum Equity Standards, the Energy Workforce Equity Portal, and the program support resources available to help you succeed!
